We are the irrational, emotional humans that live off instinct and survival while also being the language bearing, rational humans that have evolved.
The goal is to not ignore the emotional human, but control it.
Understand it.
Feel emotions but react with rationality.
When I drink (and most others) I lose sense of that rational.
It’s all emotion.
My emotional side runs rampant.
And when my rational side wakes up in the morning some times, he is angered at the emotional side.
Unfortunately, they’re the same person.
